It's obvious. Midas. They're giving it away already.
Also, HL3 will be announced there.

Oh wow, Midas is back. Woot! Also I am very curious as to which company will sponsor the SSL...

I could live the rest of my life happy if BW were to stay like this. Sonic, you are an amazing man. Without you, I have no idea what the state of BW would be. SSL/SOSPA gives me so much hope!
